Options
Depending on the selected source, different options are available.
- Bypass Master Section
-
If this option is activated, the plug-ins and gain of the Master Section are bypassed when rendering.
- Auto Save Master Section Preset
-
If this option is activated, the Master Section preset is automatically saved in the companion file of the audio file when you render the file. You can load the Master Section preset via the Load Master Section Preset option in the lower right corner of the wave window.
- No Reverb Tail
-
If this option is activated, the audio tail produced by effects such as reverb is not included in the rendered file.
Some plug-ins do not transfer information on the tail duration to WaveLab. In this case, this option has no effect. For such plug-ins, you can add the Silence plug-in to add extra samples at the end of the file.
- Copy Markers
-
If this option is activated, the markers that are included in the range to process are copied to the rendered file.
- Skip Exclusion Region
-
If this option is activated, muted audio ranges are skipped and not included in the result.
- Open Resulting Audio File
-
If this option is activated, every rendered file is opened in a new window.
- Bypass Master Section on Resulting Audio File
-
If this option is activated, playback of the resulting audio file bypasses the entire Master Section. This setting can be toggled by clicking the button at the bottom right of the wave window or montage window.
NoteIt is recommended to activate this option, because this way, you do not monitor new files through the effects that have already been applied to them.
- Upload to SoundCloud
-
If this option is activated, the rendered file is uploaded to SoundCloud.
